I used to enjoy the tinned stuff, but no longer. One day I had some and just realised how foul it was and deceided 'never again'.
Now I make it to the following recipe myself (for 3 people):
Melt 75g butter in a pan
Add 75g flour and mix
Cook for 1 minute
Slowly add 650ml of milk
Cook sauce for approx 5 minutes
Add 200g cheese (I use strong chedder and sometimes mix in a little feta)
Add a little cayenne pepper
Add some cooked bacon (cut up into little pieces) or sausage meat
Then stir in some pasta that has been cooked for a minute or so less than it says on the bag.
Grate some cheese over the top and stick in a 200 C oven for 15-20minutes whilst you clear up.
Jobs a goodun.
Nice recipe, the recipe I do that is fast to make is..
Melt 50g butter
Add 2 table spoons of plain floor and fry the flour ( it takes away the floor taste)
Add salt, pepper and dry herbs
Add a little boiling water from a kettle, watching not to burn the hands of yourself, adding as much as you want the sauce to be thick( Great bases for a lot of different sauces)
Reduce to a low heat and add 600g of mature cheese(what ever you have), leaving it to melt
1kg of pasta boiled and drained add sauce to it and eat 1 minute later.
I feed 5 with that, will be trying your recipe.
